Depends on the story being told. Some stories are perfectly encapsulated in 90 minutes, some need 90 episodes.

That said, I find shows have both a lower initial commitment and a higher potential payoff, so I don’t watch many movies.

I don’t really grok products like this.

If you have a fundamental disagreement with a platform, continuing to engage with it, even through a condom, is still perpetuating it. It’s maintaining that platform as still important and integral, and a place that others should continue to engage with. It’s telling advertisers that it’s still a place that’s worth their money to maintain a presence on. It stymies the momentum in shifting to an alternative; why put the effort into a new service if people are still seeing your posts?

It’s like pirating Windows instead of moving to a different OS. You’re still perpetuating the MS hegemony and telling software developers that Windows is the platform they need to develop for.

Seeing a game is Ubisoft makes it a total nonstarter. I refuse to have to have a separate account and be forced to log into it just to play a goddamn game.

As a citizen of the US, it’s not like we entirely respect rule-of-law. We’re all too happy to overlook enforcing laws against rich/famous/corporate, and all too happy to overlook legal protections for poor/immigrants/minorities.
